1.2 GENERATOR 
APPLICABILITY
These generators have been designed and manufactured for sup-
plying electrical power for recreational vehicles. DO NOT modify 
the generator or use it for any application other than for what it 
was designed. If there are any questions pertaining to its applica-
tion, write or call the factory. Do not use the unit until advised by 
competent authority.
 
 For fire safety, the generator must have been 
properly installed in compliance with ANSI 
119.2-1975/NFPA 501C-1974, “Standard for 
Recreational Vehicles, Part III – Installation 
of Electrical Systems.” The generator also 
must have been installed in strict compliance 
with the manufacturer’s detailed installation 
instructions. After installation, do nothing 
that might render the unit in noncompliance 
with such codes, standards and instructions.
Use the generator set to supply electrical power for operating one 
of the following electrical loads:
RV 45 G: 120 and/or 240 volts, single phase, 60 Hz electrical 
• 
loads. These loads can require up to 4500 watts (4.5 kW) of 
total power, but cannot exceed 37.5 AC amperes of current at 
120 volts (breaker is limited to 30 Amps).
RV 55 G: 120 and/or 240 volts, single phase, 60 Hz electrical 
• 
loads. These loads can require up to 5500 watts (5.5 kW) of 
total power, but cannot exceed 45.8 AC amperes of current at 
120 volts or exceed 22.9 AC amperes at 240 volts.
RV 65 G: 120 and/or 240 volts, single phase, 60 Hz electrical 
• 
loads. These loads can require up to 6500 watts (6.5 kW) of 
total power, but cannot exceed 54.1 AC amperes of current at 
120 volts or exceed 27 AC amperes at 240 volts.
n
 Do not overload the generator. Some instal-
lations may require that electrical loads be 
alternated to avoid overloading. Applying 
excessively high electrical loads may dam-
age the generator and may shorten its 
life. Add up the rated watts of all electrical 
lighting, appliance, tool and motor loads 
the generator will power at one time. This 
total should not be greater than the watt-
age capacity of the generator. If an electri-
cal device nameplate gives only volts and 
amps, multiply volts times amps to obtain 
watts (volts x amps = watts). Some elec-
tric motors require more watts of power (or 
amps of current) for starting than for con-
tinuous operation.
1.3 INSTALLATION
This Owner’s Manual has been prepared under the assumption 
that a competent, qualified technician installed the generator into 
a recreational vehicle. We also assume the installer complied 
with all applicable codes, standards and regulations pertaining to 
installation.
An INSTALLATION MANUAL was shipped with the generator. That 
Manual contains manufacturer’s instructions and recommenda-
tions for installing the unit into an industrial vehicle. After installa-
tion, installers should forward the Installation Manual to Owners/
Operators for their information.
Owners/Operators have the responsibility to make sure that noth-
ing is done that might render the installation unsafe or in non-
compliance with applicable codes, standards and instructions.
1.4 SAFETY
Before using the generator set, carefully read GENERAL SAFETY 
RULES inside the cover. Comply with these RULES to prevent 
accidents and damage to equipment and/or property. The manu-
facturer suggests copying and posting the GENERAL SAFETY 
RULES to potential operators of this equipment.
1.5  
GENERATOR AC CONNECTION 
SYSTEM
These air-cooled generator sets are equipped with dual stator 
AC power windings. These two stator windings supply electrical 
power to customer electrical loads by means of a dual 2-wire 
connection system.
Generators may be installed to provide the following outputs:
1.  120 VAC loads only — two loads, each with a maximum 
total wattage requirement equal to half of the generator’s 
rated power output (in watts), and 120V across the generator 
output terminals. Figure 1.1 shows the generator lead wire 
connections for 120VAC ONLY.
